Self-described “way fat” director Kevin Smith was booted from a Southwest Airlines flight because of his size, according to his own breathless minute-by-minute tweets.

Smith, the millionare director and writer of “Clerks” and “Zack and Miri Make a Porno” was thrown off the U.S. budget airline’s Boeing 737 late last night night in Oakland, Calif., because the captain deemed him a “flight risk,” Smith tweeted. The incident was first reported by TMZ today.

He was eventually flown out on a later flight to Burbank, Calif., but not before making his displeasure known to the 1.6 million people following him on Twitter.

“Hey @SouthwestAir? F–k making it right for me just ’cause I have a platform. I sat next to a big girl who was chastised for not buying an extra ticket because “all passengers deserve their space.” F–king flight wasn’t even full! F–k your size-ist policy. Rude…,” he tweeted in quick succession.

Southwest gave him a $100 voucher for his troubles, he Tweeted.

“Wanna tell me I’m too wide for the sky? Totally cool. But fair warning, folks: IF YOU LOOK LIKE ME, YOU MAY BE EJECTED FROM [Southwest],” he tweeted.

“We are sincerely sorry for your travel experience on Southwest Airlines,” the airline stated in an open letter to Smith.

The airline cited its “customer of size” policy, which requires larger passengers to purchase an additional ticket if they cannot be comfortably accommodated in a single seat. Smith typically puchases a pair of seats for his travels, but was attempting to fly standby on a flight with only one empty seat, Southwest said.

“Our pilots are responsible for the Safety and comfort of all Customers on the aircraft and therefore, made the determination that Mr. Smith needed more than one seat to complete his flight,” the airline said in the post.
